We use RI everyday. Not just as a safe and secure repository for our images, but to share them too. RI’s unique software ensures color consistency across platforms, and that is very important to us.

The art duo Andres Lutz und Anders Guggisberg have been working on sculptures, paintings, photography and installations since 1996. A few months ago, they decided to upgrade their website. The requirement was to keep the website simple but make it much more focussed on images and allow viewers to immerse themselves into Lutz & Guggisberg’s work. The new site also needs to serve as an archive to collect and review images and information about their work over the years. Reference Image delivered an image-centric website powered by our unique image management system for the arts. The integrated Deep Zoom allows viewers to get really close and personal with the images of works and shows.
